Nomiku is a San Francisco-based company making sous-vide immersion circulators designed for the home cook.[1] The company was started as a Kickstarter project in 2012. Nomiku was intended to provide affordable access to sous-vide cooking.[2] In 2017, began to offer home delivery of prepared meals that are prepared using sous-vide method.
Company history
Nomiku was founded by Lisa Q. Fetterman, Abe Fetterman, and Wipop Bam Suppipat. Previously, Lisa and Abe started their first company together, called Lower East Kitchen, while living in New York City.[3] After relocating to the San Francisco, Lisa and Abe decided to pursue their sous vide endeavours further and joined the hardware startup accelerator Haxlr8r.[4]
Nomiku's name is a shortened version of the Japanese phrase “Nomikui” (飲み食い), which means “eating and drinking”.[citation needed]
In 2017, Nomiku began to offer a meal delivery service that shipped pre-packaged, pre-cooked, pre-portioned meals to customers that could be prepared using sous vide cooking in 30 minutes. An investment [5]from Samsung helped the company developed an RFID enabled sous vide version of their Nomiku immersion cooker and expand the business from a connected hardware device to a subscription meal delivery service.
Founders
Lisa Q. Fetterman is the CEO of Nomiku. A graduate of New York University’s Arthur L. Carter Institute of Journalism, she worked in several fine dining restaurants. Fetterman also worked as a journalist at many publications.[6] She has been named Forbes 30 Under 30[7] as well as Zagat 30 Under 30[8] for her work with Nomiku.
Abe Fetterman a PhD from Princeton specializing in Plasma Physics and Astrophysics.[9] He is the CTO of Nomiku and helped Lisa conceive Lower East Kitchen and develop their Ember Kit.[citation needed]
Wipop Bam Suppipat is Nomiku’s third co-founder and designer. Suppipat earned his Industrial Design degree from the Rhode Island School of Design and was classically trained at the French Culinary Institute.[citation needed]
